It means you need to talk to your system (server) administrator about the exec() function. Did you try to optimize images while that error message was active?
I had the plugin active which optimizes automatically, right?
I uninstalled and reinstalled. The older pix are still good, thank goodness! But this one I did yesterday is blurry and awful and I can’t fix it. I’ve deleted and reuploaded (while plugin was deleted) but still blurry.

I’ll call the hosting company and ask about the exec() function. Hopefully, they will know what I’m taking about 🙂
I have a screenshot of the media file. to the right of the pix, there are messages like:
optipng/pgnout is missing
jpegtran is missing
EWWW IO is doing absolutely nothing to your images if it is complaining about exec(). Deactivate all your plugins, and then check to see if images upload properly. If so, reactivate them one at a time until you get blurry images again, which will tell you which one is the culprit.
If your hosting company doesn’t know what exec() is, find a new hosting company, fast!
They fixed the exec() thing 🙂
